Cleopatra: 69-30 B.C. (Died at 39 due to suicide via snake bite)
As Pharoah
Cleopatra was born in 69 B.C and died in 30 B.C. She is probably one of the most famous pharoahs of Egypt. She became pharoah when she was only 17. She is known to be incredibly intelligent as well as exceedingly charming, beautiful and seductive. Cleopatra was the only pharoah to speak nine different languages and an expert at math. Even though she was the pharoah of Egypt, she was actually of Greek heritage. Her family is probably directly related to Alexander the Great. However, even though she was not of Egyptian blood, she was the only pharoah to speak the Egyptian language and follow the Egyptian faith. Personal Life
Cleopatra was known to be very self-centered and pampered herself to an incredible extent. She loved to have servants fawn over her beauty. Due to her gorgeous appearance and charm, she was probably most famous for her romances. She had an affair with Julius Caeser which led to the birth of their child, Caesarion (Little Caser). Once Caser died, Cleopatra raised him on her own. Later in life, she married Marc Antony in 36 B.C. and had twins. Antony was Caser's successor and best friend. As a wedding present, Octavian gave the couple Cyprus, Crete and Syria. Cleopatra ran these countries with Caesarion. Downfall
Later on, Octavian was convinced that Marc and Cleopatra were searching for more power and he delcared war on Antony. Unfortunately, the result of the battle is still unclear. The only known event is that Cleopatra got word of his death when she was taken prisoner by Octavian. She was so distraught by this news that she killed herself by having people let a venomous cobra bite her. Her twins were then raised by Antony's previous wife, Octavia (Octavian's sister) who Marc married for appearances. Summary
Cleopatra was one of the most intelligent rulers of Egypt. She was known for her beauty, self-cented ways, intelligence and romances. She took power over Egypt at the age of 17 and died at the age of 39 by way of allowing a poisonous cobra bite her. She is most famous for her romances with Julius Caeser and Marc Antony.
